Speed Review: Lavera Organic Gentle Foaming Cleanser

I tend to shy away from foaming cleansers, for fear that the harsh foaming agents will strip my acne-prone skin and cause it to overproduce oil. However, I decided to give Lavera Organic Gentle Foaming Cleanser a go owing to the natural ingredients.

The packaging isn't the most exciting although the white colour clearly communicates the natural brand message. I'd have preferred a transparent bottle to be able to tell how much product was remaining. The pump dispenser is functional and I appreciated the clear directions.

One pump dispenses a generous amount of product. A very soft, lightweight foam is produced and it's easy to work this into skin. Despite containing organic almond, the cleanser has no discernable scent.

I feel that Lavera Organic Gentle Foaming Cleanser lives up to its name. The cleanser does indeed feel very gentle and I was even able to use it around the delicate eye area, although its worth noting that it wasn't completely effective & I still needed to use a separate eye makeup remover.

It rinsed away easily and I was impressed that my skin didn't feel tight or stripped following use.

I was a little surprised at the price tag of £11.90 for just 50ml but if you have normal skin and are looking for a simple, everyday rinse-off cleanser then it could be worth checking this out.
